Strengths:
Super solid precise and strong all-mountain ski for experienced skiers. Old-skool decor adds to the old-skool look but this is a modern freeride ski that loves to be pushed hard and skied with precision anywhere on the mountain. Great turn initiation, surprisingly nimble in steep moguls (though not the ski of choice for these conditions) and makes a good fist of those powder days that turn up out of the blue in the Alps. The Motion binding gets the most out of the ski. And on piste you can ride them on rails at maximum velocity as they carve like a GS ski. The slight twin tip at the rear helps for those times you need to back up.
Weaknesses:
Heavy and can be wooden when skied timidly or on a hangover/bad hair day.
Summary:
Under-rated ski that you can find still online, particularly in Germany, for around EUR 199 with bindings. A total bargain at that price for what is really a mini-Mantra. Recommended!
Riding style: Off-piste-powder-piste

Riding style: Off-piste-powder-piste
Strengths:
Bites on all surfaces - only the ski I really trust when the piste is extremely icy.
Can really drive at any time while remaining in control.
Weaknesses:
No skis you are lying on, you have to work with them.
Not immediately the bells in the sneeze.
Summary:
Do you find a pair of nice used for a sensible money, turn it on immediately!

Hmm.
Obviously, it's possible to bend these skis at an equipment display model bigger ...
There will be other skis next season but I can give them a very good score after a season's rides; super in the piste and maybe a bit too tight for loose snow.

Awesome ice cream in this ski.
Stable in speed and kicks to throw around when needed go fast.
However, the cruel pisting features automatically cause loosening properties to deteriorate slightly. Because the PRO model is quite hard, it can be a bit difficult to make them float like a pair of softer skis in deep loose snow.

Great to go on. Has both Telis and regular binding to. Almost more beautiful to go telis on. Is not completely satisfied with the loose properties, since the skid is a bit too hard to drive my lash. However, fun in Swedish windpine environments. but does not really get a lot of snow. Can you really go with you anytime.

After much dividing back and forth and after reading various ski tests I finally decided for a pair of Völkl 7 24 Pro. I have previously been on a pair of Salomon X-Scream, but tired of these because I think they are too soft.
I have competed a lot but no quantities. Have nice technique and prefer offpiste, but considering how it looks in the Swedish mountains, it will be a bit piss-abusive as well.
I have been riding the ski for a week in Sälen. The substrate was, at least, varied, ranging from stone-hard artificial snow to decimeter depth loosnö.
On artificial snow in the piste I am very pleased. The steel edges bite well and it works to go anywhere from short-range to pull at really high speed in big turns. Of course it is easier to ride a pistachio with a more pistinated skirt with a narrower waist, but in view of how the skirt looks, I'm still satisfied.
When I ended up in my ass, I was even more satisfied. The bounty I think is excellent, and it can be carried on even when there is a rubbish nose (which makes it much harder with slimmer skis).
The motion system I did not notice any advantages of pure motionless, the same feeling as any binding system. The reason I bought it is that it's easy to change a plate and instead mount telescope or turbines on the ski, which seems to me to be nice. However, have not tested this yet.
In conclusion, I think it's a nice compromise between a pistinated ski and a fetting for the offpiste. However, one should be aware that it is just a compromise which means that they are not the best in either environment. But for me who can only afford to have a pair of skis, they are all right.
